To investigate the relationship of MUC1, MUC5AC, and the syndrome of spleen and stomach, 109 subjects (34 peptic ulcer (PU), 62 chronic gastritis (CG), and 13 healthy volunteers (CON)) were included. All the subjects included were surveyed with questionnaire to classify them into damp-heat syndrome of spleen and stomach (DHSS), spleen-qi deficiency syndrome (SQD), and CON, examined by gastric endoscope, and biopsied. Rapid urease and methylene blue staining (MBS) were performed on every subject to diagnose for Helicobacter pylori (Hp) infection, and both were defined as Hp-positive. Hematoxylin and eosin (HE) staining was performed on every specimen to explore the histomorphology, inflammatory degree, and inflammatory activity of different groups; then Elivision™ plus kit was used to test the expression of MUC1 and MUC5AC. All the results of digital images were reviewed by two experts blindly. The inflammatory degree with Hp infection was higher than those uninfected or CON, but no significant difference was found between DHSS and SQD. And the expressions of MUC5AC with positive Hp was higher than those with negative Hp or CON regardless of the deficiency and solid syndrome of spleen-stomach but not for MUC1. We speculate that the deficiency and solid syndrome of spleen-stomach is a condition like Tai Ji symbol of dynamic equilibrium, showing the higher expression of MUC5AC but no change of MUC1 in the circumstance of Hp infection.

Background: Gastroduodenal perforations constitute one of the commonest surgical emergencies encountered. Helicobacter pylori is a gram negative bacterium that has infected more than half the world’s population. The most commonly recognized manifestation of H. pylori infection in India is peptic ulcer disease. Although the relationship between H. pylori infection and peptic ulcer has been well defined, the relationship of H. pylori infection with gastroduodenal perforation is still controversial. The objective of the study was to determine the presence of H. pylori in gastroduodenal perforations.Methods: We conducted a prospective study, noting the number of cases which turned out to be positive for H. pylori in cases of gastroduodenal perforations intraoperatively, using rapid urease test.Results: Out of 100 cases of gastroduodenal perforations operated, 74% were positive for the test. Gastric perforations positive for the test were 81.4% and duodenal perforations positive for the test were 68.42%.Conclusions: There is a positive attribution between H. pylori infection and gastroduodenal perforations.

Objective We aimed to investigate the relationship of Helicobacter pylori infection with alcohol and smoking. Methods We conducted a cross-sectional study among participants who underwent health check-ups for H. pylori infection between January 2013 and March 2017. We subsequently investigated the relationship of H. pylori infection with alcohol and smoking. Results A total of 7169 participants were enrolled in this study. The overall prevalence of H. pylori infection was 55.2%. Participants with H. pylori infection were more likely to be older than those without H. pylori infection. For male participants with H. pylori infection, multivariable logistic regression analysis indicated that both smoking (odds ratio (OR): 1.61; 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.41–1.83) and alcohol consumption (OR: 1.30; 95% CI: 1.10–1.52) were independently positively associated with H. pylori infection. For female participants, multivariable logistic regression analysis indicated that both smoking (OR: 0.03; 95% CI: 0.02–0.07) and alcohol consumption (OR: 0.20; 95% CI: 0.12–0.33) were inversely significantly associated with H. pylori infection after adjustment for age. Conclusions Smoking and alcohol consumption were risk factors for male participants but these were protective factors for female individuals with H. pylori infection.
